Whilst the initial response might have been one of despair, DADDYHOUSE might have been subdued after a couple of moments when his quad eights were cracked by ATLANTA66’s four queens. If he hadn’t thrown his laptop through the window, he would have noticed that he had qualified for the online Bad Beat Jackpot at UltimateBet. Yes, this little suckout had won him $76,313.92…
The hand, which cropped up in a regular Hold’em ring game on the site, meant that Atlanta66 picked up and additional $38,156 and the other eight players who were innocent bystanders ended up with an extra $1,603 in their accounts. In a nice spin on the traditional Bad Beat setups, UltimateBet’s system meant the other 42 players sat on jackpot tables picked up $603 apiece. The Bad Beat Jackpot is funded by players who sit on the jackpot tables. In addition to normal rake, an extra fifty cents is taken from each pot to build the bumper prize pool.
DADDYHOUSE’s payout is the largest since the Bad Beat Jackpot was set up on the site back in September, but it is sure to be surpassed soon - the payouts so far have exceeded $750,000 in two weeks. All that leaves for us to do is head over to the site to get our aces cracked…
